We have a common bond as we have both lost a son who served our nation well in the US Military.

Your son's blue star has turned to gold.

I met Christian in AIT, we became friends instantly, we always talked about music and tattoos and skateboarding. We had an awesome time together and one of the best times of my life. I feel that in the short time we trained together that we would be good friends for life. Im sorry for you loss. He will be missed very much.

I first met Christian a couple of weeks after being stationed in Korea...little did I know that he would not only be my roommate but a friend and better brother. He was a good man and he will be missed greatly! You treated me like family and I will forever consider you my family. My condolences to the Clausen family.
